Hi,
realms are currently limited to 1 byte in the kernel, so it is probably better to have some sort of 'tag to realm <start> [length]' with length defaulting to 255 and something bigger than short - that way it will be easy to make use of larger numbers for the realms later?
Some kind of mapping can be found I'm sure. I guess Piotr and/or yourself will send something in at some point?
There could be other uses for tags, BGP has 4-byte ASNs that you might want to put in a tag, OSPF has a 4-byte tag field. So, might as well go with (at least) 4-bytes on that basis, I guess.
